What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is an alternative to fixed, visible braces.
It consists of clear plastic aligners that are tailor made for you. As the name suggests, when worn, they are barely visible to other people and are basically invisible! The aligners apply gentle pressure to your teeth to gradually move them into the ideal position. You will receive sets of aligners to take home and change every 7-10 days, coming for check-ups every 4-6 weeks.
At Balbriggan Dental & Facial Clinic our orthodontist can offer you a discreet solution to realigning your smile. The flexibility and choice that Invisalign offers allows you to have control over your treatment and still get results. Invisalign technology uses the information from over 10 million completed cases to provide you with the result that you are looking for. We advise that you wear the aligners for 20-22 hours a day and only remove them when eating, drinking, brushing and flossing.
Choose Invisalign for Comfort and Durability
Another major benefit to choosing Invisalign is that they are comfortable to wear. This is thanks to the fact that you will have either a 3d (iTero) scan or impressions taken. These will allow us to get the exact measurements of your mouth for your aligners to be made and a 3D animation to show you what your teeth will look like after treatment, before you’ve even started wearing them!
The durability of Invisalign aligners means that they do not break easily. This will allow you to carry on with your daily activities without having to worry about any problems.
